Anniversary Day 2014
Three years ago today! Not a
day goes by that we aren’t grateful for the unconditional gift we were given on
Sept 27, 2011! Today three years, Stephanie Moglia (AKA- “our angel”)
laid down her life for Jim, so he could continue to have a long, healthy
extended life! After three years, “THANK YOU” still doesn’t seem adequate.
HAPPY 3rd
ANNIVERSARY!! Jim continues to do well and he continues to
be described as “boring, by his nephrologists and transplant team.
We both know how truly “non-boring” his story
is. Many that are dealing with kidney
failure do not have a donor in place or even a remote possible donor. Those
dealing with kidney failure are mostly likely surviving through dialysis treatments,
which Jim did not have to endure before his kidney donation.
Jim continues
to work on staying healthy, sharing his story through personal testimonies as
well as both of us working with the NKF, and other community health awareness
groups. That’s the best way we know how to put our “THANK YOU” into an active
state. This gift is not taken lightly in
our family; it is a daily blessing!
As last year, Jim,
along with our daughter and a group from Wilmington University participated in
the Bike-to-the-bay for MS. We also participated
in the Pancreatic Walk/5K for Wilmington, and on October 12th of this year we, once again as a family will be participating
in the Wilmington Kidney Walk/5K. Our hearts are to serve and make a
difference. We know that 2nd
chances are to be used for the good and may this active use continue to be a way of
saying, “THANK YOU”.
SO,
Happy 3rd Anniversary Jim and Stephanie! The gift of one of her
strong healthy kidneys to replace Jim’s very weakened kidney is still humbling,
amazing and incredible to us. Stephanie’s “gift”, without hesitation still
leaves my mind searching for more words to show and say THANK YOU STEPHANIE
“We know what true love looks like because of Jesus. He gave His
life for us, and He calls us to give our lives for our brothers and sisters.”
